It looks identical to multitasking gestures, just wondering if it's better in any way or more like Zephyr.

I tried the trial and ended up purchasing Tage and replacing MultitaskingGestures

My reasons were as follows

1. It works in landscape mode to exit apps

2. You can invoke the app switcher like zephyr did (you don't have to close the app first before you can invoke the app switcher)

Besides that, I don't use the other fancy features (never did in zephyr either)

I say give the 3 day trial a try and form your opinions based on that

doesn't hurt to give it a try (not to mention it's free) and it's best to have a hands on experience than to rely on another person's experience

I guess it's just a hassle to uninstall multitasking gestures, install Tage, uninstall Tage, reinstall multitasking gestures.

My only question is - is the swipe up to close exactly the same as Multitasking Gestures in terms of speed, responsiveness etc?

I prefer Multitasking Gesture even though the control center moved to the notification center doesn't work. Tage gets confused when I swipe up, sometimes it goes back to the home screen, sometimes to the multitasking, so I wasn't impressed

Man I love this tweak. Did the trial and bought it within 2 minutes.


I have keyboard disable off and edge app multitasking off

Left and center to kill app, right to open app switcher.

Works well on pad and phone. Cc is between center and right. Perfect !

I still prefer swipe right status bar assigned to lock button on activator over the implementation in tage

MILES BETTER THAN MULTITASKING GESTURES AND WORKS WITH IOS8

It's a lot faster than Multitasking Gestures, I'm glad this dev is very active in updating

It's as fast as zephyr comparing it to closing apps on 3GS with animations sped up also. One of my key criticisms of multitasking gestures was the slide up animation left room for improvement since zephyr support was abandoned

It's not that new. It's been arou...

Never mind.

It's an excellent tweak for those that miss Zephyr. Works similarly and just as fluid. Best of all works for iOS 8.

Is anyone still using it after auxo? If yes, hows the experience?

I have bought auxo3 but have heard its a battery hogger and thus want to give tage a try.

Hows it on battery?

Has anyone used "Tage" the new Multitasking Gestures tweak?

I use them both. Battery life is great.
